PROMYSHLENNAYA ARKHITEKTURA - "LYUBOV' I TEKHNOLOGIYA" (1988)

Original title: Любовь и технологияBand: Промышленная архитектура

Promyshlennaya Arkhitektura was the music project of Dmitry Selivanov, one of the cult figures of the Siberian underground scene. Selivanov was a charismatic singer and a self-taught guitar player. His style was technically raw but highly creative, a mix of power chords and radical improvisation.Apart from some collaborations with Yegor Letov, this is Selivanov's sole album, as he committed suicide one year after it was released. Sharp post-punk sounds, low fidelity production, toy keyboards, and a bunch of grotesque lyrics sung in the most theatrical way possible. That's all these nine songs needed.
